Chapter 567
In the Upton mansion, Bon sat on the sofa with a stern expression, still angry. He closed his eyes,
calmly listening to the sounds of lashes from the garden.
Nicole held a handkerchief, crying continuously, her voice now hoarse.
However, Kon was truly furious this time, completely ignoring her pleas.
Katie, with half of her face still swollen from the slap last night, knelt on the cold tiles of the hall. Tear
streaks remained on her face, giving her a pitiful appearance.
Ron had always spoilt both Katie and Colin since they were young. This time, he was ruthless.
The tense and oppressive atmosphere lingered for another two minutes.
In the garden, Colin was suspended and beaten, letting out increasingly pitiful screams.
It seemed like he was on the verge of passing out!
Enduring the intense pain in her knees, Katle crawled to Ron’s feet, clutching his pants, and pleading.
through tears.

your own child that way? You should deal with Sheena and finish off that Phoebel”
Ron stared at her in shock. Her words angered him, and he shoved her hands away.
“How did I raise such a daughter? Arrogant, lawless, twisting right and wrong, and heartlessly
scheming to harm others! This is unbelievable!”
Thrown to the ground by him, Katie stared at him blankly, coldly smirking.
“Isn’t this all your fault? You told me to be ruthless to secure a stable and long–lasting position. My only
mistake is that I didn’t plan thoroughly enough!”
“Katie!” Ron was so furious that he was left speechless.
Katie continued, “If I succeed in this, Colin might be able to marry Sheena. She’ll be the Lawson
family’s successor, and all her family fortune will belong to the Upton family once they’re married! We
won’t have to endure being at the bottom of the four major families and be looked down upon by others
anymore!”
“Dad, I was only thinking for the good of the Upton family. You shouldn’t treat Colin and me this way!
Besides, Colin is unaware of this whole plan. He shouldn’t be subjected to such punishment!”
Ron snorted heavily, “As your elder brother and a source of pride for the Upton family, he should’ve
advised you against doing such things. However, the fact that he actively participated in such
disgraceful actions and tarnished the honor of the Upton family, he deserves to be taught a lesson!”
“Dad!”

Bon turned away, unmoved.
Panicked servants from the garden hurriedly entered, “Sir, Mr. Upton has fainted again! If you continue
beating him after waking him up, he might not survive. Spare him, please!
Katie and Nicole were both startled.
Ron’s gaze became slightly complex, but he remained silent.

Nicole, with a determined look, quickly grabbed a fruit knife from the coffee table and pressed it against
her own neck.
“Mom, what are you doing?”
“Dear! What are you doing? Put the knife down!”
Both Ron and Katie exclaimed. Instead of lowering the knife, Nicole pressed it against her skin, leaving
a shallow cut on her neck.
“Ron! Colin’s my son! If you want to kill him, I’ll die with him! You might as well just kill the three of us,
find a new wife, and have sons again!”
“Alright, I won’t hit him anymore! Put the knife down, and let’s talk things out!”
Faced with his wife’s desperate act, Ron finally gave in.
The servants carried Colin back to his room, and Katie, worried about Colin, followed upstairs to tend
to his injuries.
The hall was soon left with only the couple.
Having already vented his anger, Ron was now calmly smoking a cigarette.
Nicole racked her brain, trying to figure out a solution as she suggested, “Honey, for now, we need to
take down all the trending topics to control the stock market downturn.”
